  • Well I was gonna go for a nsd today but then I remembered it's my hubby's birthday :o I swear it's the pregnancy hormones I've been so forgetful recently. So I plan on buying him a birthday cake, just a little victoria sponge so nothing expensive, we are having a turkey roast dinner tonight, have got the turkey just need to buy some potatoes and veg, I reckon I will spend about £5, but will budget £10 :p

  • Morning all. Yay, the weekend is almost here :j :j

    Spent £1.20 on a coffee. Home-made lunch and fruit to nibble on (hopefully no chocolate craving today :rolleyes: ). Was going to buy a take-away tonight but there are leftovers in the fridge so I'll just get a bottle of wine instead :D

    Happy NS/low spend day :T

  • Friday should be a NSD for me as should hopefully the weekend too!

  • Its definately not going to be a NSD for me today, but I'm trying to be as good as I can! Plan to spend:

    £1.09 on Envelope for ebay purchase, although postage and packaging was paid for so its cancelled out.
    £4 on Friday night bottle of wine
    £1 on Friday night chocolate

    I know I know, not necessary spends, but they are necessary to me as friday night is my treat night which after a week of working 18.5 hours nights and looking after my toddler who thinks that 4.30 is an acceptable time to wake up I really deserve these! I had 3 NSD days this week too, so I feel I am justified :D

    Well, cheque for DS's preschool £28.40. Then need to go and get some food ready for later on. It's just fruit we've run out of though so I might not bother.
    I can get bread and milk without any bother when I go to fetch DS from preschool.
    I overspent on my grocery budget massively last month so I have reduced this months to try and get back on track.
    I ought to be able to because most of the overspend was filling the freezer with lamb as it was half price. So I have 4 lamb shoulders and 2 chickens in my freezer which will do 18 meals. I need to have a figure out of my menu plan for the month or we're going to get bored!
    Anyhoo, wandered off there!
    <£2 for bread and milk. Will update later.
